With the release of Dez Bryant, the Dallas Cowboys’ biggest need is painfully obvious now. But while they’re likely to be in the market for a No. 1 receiver at this pick, this scenario already has a pair of pass-catchers off the board. Will SMU’s Courtland Sutton be the kind of receiver they’re looking for, or will they opt for better value at one of their multiple positions of need on defense.

If they opt to use their top pick on that side of the ball, a disruptive lineman like Michigan’s Maurice Hurst or Alabama’s Da’Ron Payne could warrant consideration. A pair of talented linebackers (Alabama’s Rashaan Evans, Boise State’s Leighton Vander Esch) could make sense, as could a shutdown corner like Louisville’s Jaire Alexander.
